Beautiful brick courthouse
9 Livingstone Street, Beaufort
The Beaufort Court House has been home to the Beaufort Historical Society since the court closed in 1982. It stands on the land of the Wathaurong people.
From 1864 a Petty Sessions, County Court and a Court of Mines sat at Beaufort.
The Beaufort Courthouse is one of the few rural court buildings that retain its original court room furniture and fittings, a feature appreciated when Beaufort Historical Society took over the building. They have ensured the furniture has stayed in the building and take a lot of pride in it today.
Working Heritage began managing Beaufort Courthouse in 2006 and repaired and revitalised the building so it could continue to be used by the historical society.
Working Heritage will continue to maintain and improve the Beaufort Courthouse to ensure it remains a useful community asset.
